Exige Final editions

[EldonZ]

I've seen two green colored Exige 430 Cups. The dark green metallic and the brighter green. They list three green colors: Isotope Green, Vivid Green and Racing Green. The reason I want to know the colors is that I'm trying to figure out what color to wrap the Cup-R in.

Later,
Eldon

this is what configurator says when you click the i button (my emphasis):

Manufacturer’s recommended on the road price includes VAT rate of 20%, 

Yep, that's why I asked the dealer to clarify with Lotus - who apparently apologised for that misleading statement and promised to rectify it asap. That was on Monday afternoon, but I can see that it's still not sorted  

Still, even with the OTR costs it's not a bad price (comparatively speaking) for  the 390....

• extra 50 bhp (almost  )
• chargecooler
• gearbox cooler
• 410/430 uprated clutch & flywheel
• forged wheels
• AiM dash
• 390 FE stickers etc!

.....all this for just £4K more than the 350 Sport and a whopping £16K less than the 420!

Bargain!

The 390 is definitely the bargain out the three.

The price difference to the 420 is accountable with the nitrons, seats and carbon parts but as someone mentioned before, the 20th edition seemed to be a better deal. It will be interesting to know what people actually pay for these cars.

 My 20th was 81900 OTR including all the 20th extras:

Aircon, carbon seats, sound insulation, fully carpeted footwells, cruise control  and premium sound system it also had the rear wing and roof painted

My 20th was also similar to that, I think a final edition specified to a 20th is around 86k+. I can only imagine there will be some decent dealer discounts.

Nope, discounts not as good as before, well on the 430 that is.

cheers

what sort of discounts were offered historically on the 430?

So I’ve paid a deposit towards an FE today. When restrictions are lifted I’ll go and take a look and see which way to go. 390 looking favourite but 420 also tempting although not sure blowing 85k+ is going to be ok in my head. Man maths are sorted it’s just the thought of doing that much is the struggle. 
I was gutted to miss out on the 20th anniversary  but never thought they would sell that quickly given the state of everything at the moment. So I thought I would get in touch with my nearest dealer to see what the crack was only to be told there are approximately 200 exige available in total not just Uk. And they had an allocation of 8 🤦‍♂️.  So  deposit paid and now wait for restrictions to be lifted sooner rather than later hopefully. All I do know is it  will be fire red 😍

Dealers got a better "deal" from Lotus, which isnt there now.

[Ramones1234]

On the road price for my 20th anniversary addition was £79,900, which included 3 years serving as well

[Jcx]

nice did that include any discount?

 

[Ramones1234]

That was list price for the 20th edition with the 4K extra for the part X, there were only 2 left at Lotus when I purchased so not much room for any discount in mid December 2020 

[Jcx]

Actually with £4k extra for PX you did well.  Did i understand that right?  Was it £83,900 - £4k or effectively £79,900 - £4k?  All accepting that your PX was book price before the £4K addition.

I was told "no discounts" on the Final Edition 390 by one deal. Nothing. Zero.

I would recommend trying Steve @ Oakmere. I am happy with the deal as it appears I have paid similar to what others are quoting. 

Got the updated steering wheel too!

[Jcx]

above all else you got the best colour :-)

[tactical lizard]

Well there's that too!

Happy to join the MG club! Just have to get the PPF on it and then I can get out and enjoy it.

And mine (best colour) - but I will be replacing mine with a FE (undecided which).

[Jcx]
